f'.

Next, in such a configuration, FIGS. 1(a) to (f)
The operation will be explained with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. First, when starting work at the beginning of the day, the administrator sets the mode specification switch 21 to the slip mode (ST
100). Then, the administrator enters the operator number (work number) using the numeric keypad 22 (5T101), then presses the number key 2.
(ST102). Then, the control section 8 stores the entered operator number in the number storage area 78 in the memory section 9 (ST103). Next, enter the account number using the numeric keypad 22 (ST104), and press the # key 2.
Inject 4a (S, T105). Then, the control section 8 stores the entered account number in the number storage area 78 in the memory section 9 in correspondence with the operator number entered immediately before (ST106). Next, the same operation as described above is repeated for another account number, and the completion key 27 is finally pressed to end the process (ST106r).

Thereafter, when the previous day's settlement has not been performed (when the total of that day's work has not been cleared), an error code is displayed on the CR7 display section 6, and the following settlement process is performed. That is, the administrator sets the payment mode using the mode designation switch 21 (ST1). Then, the administrator inputs the # key 24a of the denomination designation key 24, and then presses the completion key 2.
7 (ST2.3). Then, the system department, 7
determines the settlement and stores the stored contents of the cash storage area 73 of the memory unit 9 as the start amount in the start amount storage area 7.
4 (ST4). Next, the control unit 9 uses the printer unit 7 to print the memory contents other than the difference storage area 74, start amount storage area 74, and cash storage area 73 in the memory unit 9 on a journal, and clears the contents (S
T5).

Also, when using this device for the first time or changing the starting amount, the administrator must set the mode designation switch 21 to settlement mode using the administrator key (STI).
. At this time, the υ control unit 8 compares the memory contents of the cash storage area 73 and the start amount storage area 74 in the memory unit 9 (5T7), and if they match, determines that the change is possible, and displays the CR7 display unit 6. Provide guidance on changes (ST
, 8). If the above comparison results do not match, the control unit 8
determines that the change is possible, and displays a message indicating that the change is not possible on the CR7 display section 6 (ST9). Therefore, it is possible for the administrator to change the starting amount even when no transactions are being made.
Once a transaction has started, the starting amount cannot be changed by the administrator. As a result, it is possible to prevent cash management from becoming impossible due to erroneous operations by the administrator, and to ensure reliable cash management.

Next, the administrator inputs the amount for each denomination using the numeric keypad 22 and denomination key 24 in response to the changeable guidance in step 8 (ST10). Then, the control section 8
stores the deposited amount for each denomination in the corresponding areas of the start amount storage area 74 and the cash storage area 73 in the memory section 9 (ST11). Next, when the completion key 27 is input (ST12), the control unit 8 calculates the total amount of the input amounts for each denomination, and stores the total amount in the start amount storage area 74 in the memory unit 9.
and stored in the corresponding area of the cash storage area 73 (ST13).

Next, a case where the operator performs normal work will be described. That is, the operator sets the mode designation switch 21 to the operator mode (5T20), then enters the operator number using the numeric keypad 22 (5T108), and presses the number key 29 (ST109). Then, the control section 8
causes the entered operator number to be stored in the storage area 91 of the RAM 11 (ST110).

Next, enter the account number using the numeric keypad 22 (5T21)
, input the two number keys (ST22), then the control unit 8 stores the input account number in the storage area 8 of the RAM 11.
6 (ST22M).

In addition, at the same time as storing the account number, the control unit 8 checks whether the relationship between the input operator number and the account number is stored in the storage area 7th, thereby determining whether the relationship corresponds to the operator number. It is determined whether the account number can be processed (ST111). As a result of this judgment,
If the relationship between the input operator number and account number is not stored in the storage area 78, the control unit 8 displays an error (ST112) and returns to step 21. If the relationship is stored, the control unit 8 displays the clock. The start time storage area 8 of the RAM 11 uses the time of the device 10 as the start time.
7 (ST20M.

Next, the operator aligns the directions of cash, that is, a plurality of bills P, and inserts them all at once into the bill slot 32 of the bill sorting and counting device 1 while standing (5T23), and presses the start key 26 (SV24). Then, the control unit 8 drives the banknote sorting and counting device 1 and lights up the start key 26. As a result, the banknote P is conveyed to the discriminating section 36 (SV25) via the taking-in conveying path (not shown), and the discriminating section 3
6 determines the denomination, authenticity, fitness, front and back, etc. of the transported banknote P. As a result, the banknotes P are stored separately in the stacking device 43a for each denomination according to the results of denomination discrimination and front/back discrimination.
It is divided into Further, the denomination signal from the discrimination section 36 is supplied to the control section 8 via the interface 12, and the control section 8 stores the number of coins for each denomination in the RAM 11 in accordance with the denomination signal (SV26).

Then, when the sorting of all the banknotes P input into the banknote input slot 32 at once is completed (SV30), the control unit 8 presses the start key 2
Turn off 6. The operator then presses the completion key 27. Then, in response to a signal from the completion key 27, the classified and counted sheet number data and the total number of sheets are read out from the RAM 11, and cumulatively added to the cumulative storage area 72 of the memory section 9.
It is also added to the account storage area 76 for each account (SV3
1). Then, the contents of the transaction amount storage area 86 in the RAM 11 are printed by the printer section 7.

Further, a plurality of coins as cash are to be inserted into the input slot 80 of the coin sorting and counting device 2 (5T32), and the start key 26 is input (SV33). Then, the control unit 8 drives the coin sorting and counting bag N2 and lights up the start key 26. Thereby, after the coins are discriminated and sorted in a discrimination and sorting section (not shown), they are separated into separate stacking sections 818 for each denomination.
~81f (SV34.35). Further, the denomination signal from the discrimination and sorting section is supplied to the control section 8 via the interface 12, and the control section 8 stores the number of coins for each denomination in the RAM 11 according to the denomination signal (SV
40).

Then, when the sorting of the coins inserted into the input slot 80 is completed (SV40), the control section 8 turns off the start key 26. Then, the operator presses the completion key 27. Then,
In response to a signal from the completion key 27, the classified and counted sheet number data and the total number of sheets are read out from the RAM 11 and stored in the memory section 9.
The total is added to the cumulative data of , and is also added to the account storage area 76 for each account (SV31).

By the way, when the operator performs manual input, the care key 23 is inserted when the mode designation switch 21 is set to the operator mode (SV42). Then, the control unit 8 clears the total amount and number of items in the manual input storage area in RAMII (SV43). Next, the operator inserts the number of cash using the numeric keypad 22 and specifies the denomination using the denomination designation key 24. Also, the type of check (
type) using a combination of the function key 25 and numeric keypad 22, and input the amount using the numeric keypad 22 (ST44-46). At this time, the amount is
+" (SV47), the amount is added in the RAM 11 (5T48), and the number of items is increased by "+1" (SV49).

Further, if the amount is "-" (SV50), the amount is subtracted in the RAM 11 (5T51), and the number of items is incremented by "-1" (SV52). Furthermore, at this time, the function key 25 is input (SV53), and when the number of items is "+" and the amount is "-", or when the number of items is "-" and the amount is "+", the lljtE section 8 will generate an error. The judgment is made and the judgment is notified (ST54 to ST56).

Also, function key 25 is turned on (SV53).
, when the amount and the number of items have the same sign (ST54-56), the contents are cumulatively added to the RAM 11 (SV57). When the manual input is completed, the operator presses the completion key 27.
Press down.

Then, the control unit 8 causes the manually input data in the RAM 11 to be cumulatively added to the cumulative data in the memory unit 9.

This allows input of data that is not subject to machine counting. Note that when the clear key is pressed (SV5
8) Returning to step 43, the total amount and number of items in the RAM 11 are cleared again, and when no key is pressed,
The user will be notified by the buzzer (5T31), and the process will return to step 44 to insert the amount.

After storing the cumulative total, the control section 8 reads the cumulative data from the memory section 9 and displays it on the CR7 display section 6. As a result, the CR7 display section 6 displays the number of deposits, the total amount, the bill amount, the coin amount, the total check amount, the change amount, etc.

Further, in the state of step 22, the operator:
Using the numeric keypad 22 and the amount key 64, the user inserts the amount of the slip corresponding to the sum of the cash to be sorted and counted and the manually input amount (ST37). Then, the control unit 8 stores the inputted slip amount in the slip amount storage area of the amount storage area 86 in the RAM 11 (ST38).

Then, the operator inserts the completion key 27 (ST6
5). Then, the control unit 8 compares the amount excluding the invoice amount in the amount storage area of the RAM 11 with the invoice amount (ST6
6). As a result of this comparison, if the amounts match, the control section 8 stores the tc banknotes P accumulated in the accumulation devices 43a, 43b, 43c, 44d in the storages 44a, . ...81f coins in safe 83a...
・Store in (ST70). At this time, the control unit 8 cumulatively stores the transaction amount in the cumulative total storage area 72 and account storage area 76 of the memory unit 9 (ST58). Thereafter, the control unit 8 stores the time recorded by the clock device 10 as the transaction end time in the end time storage area in the RAM 11, and calculates the time when the transaction was performed based on the start time and end time stored in the RAM 11. . Then, the control unit 8 cumulatively stores the calculated transaction time (usage time) in the corresponding account of the account storage area 76 in the memory unit 9 (ST73), and also stores the calculated transaction time (usage time) in the total storage area 77 of the memory unit 9. (ST74).

Further, if the amounts do not match as a result of the comparison in step 66, the control section 8 displays a message on the CR7 display section 6 that says, "The invoice amount and the transaction amount do not match. Please check the invoice amount." ST67). In response to this guidance, the operator confirms the amount of the invoice, and if it is incorrect, re-insert the correct amount of the invoice (5T68), and if it is not incorrect, inserts the completion key 27 again (ST38). Then, if the correct amount of the slip is re-entered, the process returns to step 66.

Further, when the completion key 27 is re-inserted, the control unit 8 determines whether the difference between the invoice amount and the transaction amount is within the range of the difference in the difference storage area in the memory unit 9 (for example, within 100 yen or 1 yen). is checked (ST69). As a result of this check, if the difference is within the range, the control unit 8 controls the collection device 43a.

The banknotes P accumulated in 43b, 43c, and 44d are stored in the storage 4.
4a, . . . and a temporary accumulation section 81a.

. . . 81f coins are stored in safes 83a, . . .

At this time, the control unit 8 cumulatively stores the transaction amount in the cumulative total storage area 72 and account storage area 76 of the memory unit 9 (ST58).

Further, the control unit 8 cumulatively stores the difference in the difference storage areas of the cumulative storage area 72 and the account storage area 76. That is, if the transaction amount is greater (+), it is added; if the transaction amount is less (-), it is subtracted. Then, the transaction amount and the difference are printed in a journal by the printer section 7.

Thereafter, the control 8I18 stores the time of the clock device 10 as the transaction end time in the end time storage area 88 in the RAM 11, and calculates the time when the transaction was performed based on the start time and end time stored in the RAM 11. . and,
The control unit 8 cumulatively stores the calculated transaction time ° (usage time) in the corresponding account of the account storage area 76 in the memory unit 9 (ST73), and also stores the calculated transaction time ° (usage time) in the total storage area 77 of the memory unit 9. (ST74).

Furthermore, if the result of the check in step 69 is that the difference is not within the range, the control unit 8 displays a message on the CR7 display unit 6 saying, "The transaction will be canceled because the invoice amount and the transaction amount do not match. Please perform the cancellation operation." Provide guidance. In response to this guidance, the operator inserts the cancellation key 65 (ST4
0). Next, the operator places the banknotes P into the stacking device 43a,
. . . and temporarily collect coins in the temporary accumulation section 81a, . . . 8.
Take it out from 1f (5T71) and insert the completion key 27 (ST72). By inputting the completion key 27, the control section 8 sets the time of the clock device 10 as the transaction end time and stores it in the RAM 1.
The transaction time is stored in the end time storage area in the RAM 11, and the time when the transaction was performed is calculated from the start time and end time stored in the RAM 11. Then, the control section 8 cumulatively stores the calculated transaction time (usage time) in the total total storage area 77 of the memory section 9 (ST74).

As mentioned above, the operator number registered in advance by the administrator and the account number that can be processed by the operator with this operator number are memorized. It is checked whether or not it corresponds to the above relationship, and if it corresponds to the relationship, the process is performed.

This allows only a specific operator to process one account, so it is possible to reliably manage accounts processed by each operator.

In addition, in the above embodiment, mechanical counting is performed and damaged banknotes and checks are manually input, but the present invention is not limited to this, and only the manual input of damaged banknotes and the like may be performed.

[Effects of the Invention] As described in detail above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a transaction device that can reliably manage accounts processed by each operator.
